18. TypeHandler custom Mapping logic & its underlying logic

When you want to customize some attribute Mapping logic, you can use TypeHandler in Dapper

Create a class to inherit SqlMapper.TypeHandler
Assign the class to be customized to the generic, e.g: JsonTypeHandler<custom_type>: SqlMapper.TypeHandler<custom_type>
Override Parse method to custom Query logic, and override SetValue method to custom Create,Delete,Updte logic
If there are multiple class Parse and SetValue share the same logic, you can change the implementation class to a generic method. The custom class can be specified in AddTypeHandler, which can avoid creating a lot of class, eg: JsonTypeHandler<T>: SqlMapper.TypeHandler< T> where T: class

Example : when User level is changed, the change action will be automatically recorded in the Log field.



public class JsonTypeHandler<T> : SqlMapper.TypeHandler<T> 
  where T : class
{
  public override T Parse(object value)
  {
    return JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<T>((string)value);
  }

  public override void SetValue(IDbDataParameter parameter, T value)
  {
    parameter.Value = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(value);
  }
}

public void Main()
{
  SqlMapper.AddTypeHandler(new JsonTypeHandler<List<Log>>()); 

  using (var ts = new TransactionScope())
  using (var cn = new SqlConnection(@"Data Source=(localdb)\MSSQLLocalDB;Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=master;"))
  {

    cn.Execute("create table [User] (Name nvarchar(200),Age int,Level int,Logs nvarchar(max))");

    var user = new User()
    {
      Name = "Wei",
      Age = 26,
      Level = 1,
      Logs = new List<Log>() {
        new Log(){Time=DateTime.Now,Remark="CreateUser"}
      }
    };

    // add
    {
      cn.Execute("insert into [User] (Name,Age,Level,Logs) values (@Name,@Age,@Level,@Logs);", user);

      var result = cn.Query("select * from [User]");
      Console.WriteLine(result);
    }

    // Level up
    {
      user.Level = 9;
      user.Logs.Add(new Log() {Remark="UpdateLevel"});
      cn.Execute("update [User] set Level = @Level,Logs = @Logs where Name = @Name", user);
      var result = cn.Query("select * from [User]");
      Console.WriteLine(result);
    }

    ts.Dispose();

  }
}

public class User
{
  public string Name { get; set; }
  public int Age { get; set; }
  public int Level { get; set; }
  public List<Log> Logs { get; set; }

}
public class Log
{
  public DateTime Time { get; set; } = DateTime.Now;
  public string Remark { get; set; }
}

Then trace the TypeHandler source code logic, which needs to be traced in two parts: SetValue, Parse

The underlying logic of SetValue

AddTypeHandlerImpl method to manage the addition of cache
When creating a dynamic AddParameter method in the CreateParamInfoGenerator method Emit, if there is data in the TypeHandler cache of the Mapping type, Emit adds an action to call the SetValue method.



if (handler != null)
{
  il.Emit(OpCodes.Call, typeof(TypeHandlerCache<>).MakeGenericType(prop.PropertyType).GetMethod(nameof(TypeHandlerCache<int>.SetValue))); // stack is now [parameters] [[parameters]] [parameter]
}

LookupDbType will be used when calling the AddParameters method at Runtime to determine whether there is a custom TypeHandler

Then pass the created Parameter to the custom TypeHandler.SetValue method

Finally, the C# code converted from IL



    public static void TestMeThod(IDbCommand P_0, object P_1)
    {
        User user = (User)P_1;
        IDataParameterCollection parameters = P_0.Parameters;
        //...
        IDbDataParameter dbDataParameter3 = P_0.CreateParameter();
        dbDataParameter3.ParameterName = "Logs";
        dbDataParameter3.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input;
        SqlMapper.TypeHandlerCache<List<Log>>.SetValue(dbDataParameter3, ((object)user.Logs) ?? ((object)DBNull.Value));
        parameters.Add(dbDataParameter3);
        //...
    }

It can be found that the generated Emit IL will get our implemented TypeHandler from TypeHandlerCache, and then call the implemented SetValue method to run the set logic, and TypeHandlerCache uses generic type to save different handlers in Singleton mode according to different generics. This has the following advantages :

Same handler can be obtained to avoid repeated creation of objects
Because it is a generic type, reflection actions can be avoided when the handler is taken, and efficiency can be improved

Parse corresponds to the underlying principle

The main logic is when the GenerateDeserializerFromMap method Emit establishes the dynamic Mapping method, if it is judged that the TypeHandler cache has data, the Parse method replaces the original Set attribute action.
